Planning for the full redesign to kick off early 2016. When I say
"full redesign" I mean it, so let's not talk small stuff about whether
json or xml is a batter format; let's talk about a design that will
allow us to plug in various formats easily, for example.
Starting point for discussion here:

See the last link on the description.
What we can start on now: are these the right components to break the
dumps into? Can we indeed cover all sorts of dumps this way? What
existing software can we re-use? WHat sort of grid computing or other
package can we use for the "black box" in the diagram? Etc. etc. We
want to get as much of this hashed out ahead of time so that we can get
the maximum out of the session.
